Effect of gravitational orientation on flow boiling of water in 1054 x 197 micron parallel minichannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2004-06)
Microchannels and minichannels are being considered for high heat flux applications under microgravity environment in space missions. Due to the small hydraulic diameter, the effect of gravitational forces on flow boiling ...
High speed photographic observation of flow patterns during flow boiling in single rectangular minichannel
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2003-07)
The present study extends the range of flow patterns
observed during boiling of water in a single minichannel of
height 197 mm and width 1054 mm. The calculated hydraulic
diameter of the channel is 333 mm. High-speed ...
Extending the applicability of the flow boiling correlation to low Reynolds number flows in microchannels
(American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME), 2003-04)
As microchannels are applied in flow boiling applications, it is
becoming apparent that the Reynolds number based on all
liquid flow could approach values below 100. The earlier work
by Kandlikar and Steinke (2002, 2003) ...
